Well, I have had several requests about how to make a blog button so
I better spill the beans on how! :)
First, you will need to make the actual image. You can do this
in photoshop, paint, gimp, or any other art program.
Your button should be about 125px by 125 px.
{you can experiment a little, make a circle, rectangle, ect…}
But any bigger than 125px and it probably won’t fit in people’s sidebars.
Next upload you image to photobucket.
Go to your blog layout>add a gadget>add html
Then copy and paste this into the html gadget:
Once you have pasted that into the html box replace where it says directlink with the actual direct link from photobucket.
{to get the direct link go to share>get link code>direct link to layout pages}
Now in the top right hand corner click on rich text.
You should now see your button image.
Click on the image and then click on the add link image.
{llooks like this} 
Type your blog url in the box.
In the top right hand corner push edit html.
Highlight everything in the box and copy it.
Space down two lines and paste {ctrl v}
Then type:
So it should look like this…
Push “rich text” in the upper right hand conrner, make sure everything looks good and save!
